    Sorry… most of the genocides have already been committed? Migrants have been rounded up and forcibly deported en masse? Trans people have been forced to go underground? Queer people have been erased from history?

    That’s what you don’t mind happening apparently.

      that biden enabled: yes

      Migrants have been rounded up and forcibly deported en masse?

      biden is doing this right now

      Trans people have been forced to go underground? Queer people have been erased from history?

      biden has advocated doing this for decades and his token gestures have only served to give bigots legal protection for their bigotry.

      That’s what you don’t mind happening apparently.

      that’s why i don’t want to see more by voting for a person with a decades long track record of doing so.

        Biden is doing nothing of the sort and Biden is not doing that to queer people. You’re just lying to provide cover for Trump now.

          the immigration thing is literally in the news right now.

          doing anything negative to queer people would make him lose votes with the democratic base, so he doesn’t; just like he’s done in the past.

          i will not vote for trump

            Sorry… you’re arguing that doing nothing to hurt queer people because the base doesn’t want him to is fascism now?

              sexual liberation and identity has fallen in and out of favor in american hegemony before and it will happen again; go ahead and keep moving that goal post.

                I don’t have to move a goalpost between ‘genocide’ and ‘not genocide.’ All you’re saying to me here is that the queer genocide candidate that will also support the Palestinian genocide is fine, but the one not participating in a genocide of queer people is bad.

                  I’m not supporting either candidate and there is no queer genocide in the United States nor will there be; speaking in hyperbole makes you seem unhinged and I want to trade ideas w someone who speaks in facts.
